It's just a gettogether for people who do portable crafts (sewing, knitting, embroidery, etc.) where they can work on them and get help (if anyone can help them

) and are either native English speakers or would like to practice their English. I know that a Finnish knitting group meets there twice a month but I thought that any craft would be OK. We'll have to see how many people show up and how they would like it to be. I hope you are able to come too.

I used to go to one of those a few years ago in Espoo. But we called it Bitch and Stitch

. They are fun and even if you are cack-handed with a needle and thread there's usually some arty-crafty person around just aching to show you how.
